Duquesne Dukes Fan Forum / Will Nehari be drafted?

**Posted by coffee** 3/16/2019 10:18 am

I wonder if there is a chance for Nehari Crawford to be drafted? With the rise in the program to finished ranked and playing into the second round, he may have a better chance than even others like Leigh Bodden who actually made the NFL.

Here is just one of the many draft profiles out there for him. This would be the latest in so many signs that the program has made huge progress in spite of playing at the smallest stadium(?) in D-I.

Also, a decent video from them-

Thanks Coffee for sharing and I am not sure if I can attend pro day where all the scouts from NFL will be on campus to work Nehari and others out but my guess he is that he is borderline. I say that because though he was invited to NFLPA all star game he was not invited to the Combine so he is most likely a free agent signing but I also know that the Steelers scouts are quite aware of Nehari

Conner and Crawford... sounds like a good local combination for the Steelers?

He accepted a mini-camp invitation from the New York Giants.

The Steelers extended an invitation along with others. Would have liked to see him in Pittsburgh. His agent felt he had a better chance making it in New York. Good luck with the Giants’

Not at all... The more interest the better! I'm sure I've stepped on yours and a lot of other shoes. Just cut and paste the link- go to the address bar,,highlight and hit "select all". Hit "copy" and them paste the link into the text area.
